Last year on Martin Luther King Day, I did a post to mark the occasion. This year, my thoughts and feelings have not changed, so why not re-post what I originally put up?

It's still a good essay Gary. Whatever became of Matan the last year or so?
(Remember, he's the guy who called Finkelstein "Norm.")
I've been looking for you to offer real time commentary on the inauguration of the President of the United States, as you did for some of the debates.
I'll just say, Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-TN, chose his words well and made a tasteful and principled contribution to the ceremony.
Siarlys,
I have been tied up with family health issues, but I will post something on that great masked ball.
